# Event CSV Import Issue

 * I am running into issue when trying to import an Event from a CSV. I have constructed
   a CSV to the specifications outlined in the sample CSV document, and have included
   an image of part of the CSV below. When I then upload the CSV everything looks
   like it should import successfully, but after the first player of the eighth 
   team, the player stats are no longer imported, though they are clearly uploaded
   as the table before import has the data. The import will still get the results,
   teams, and players, but after the first player of the eighth team the values “
   kills” and “games played” of player stats are not imported, even though in the
   import menu the table is filled with this data.
 * _Note that the eight team is “Ole Miss” and the first player on the CSV for that
   team in this Event is “oinks\_”._
 * Correctly Formatted CSV for Event Import:

 * I have no idea how or why but this issue is now resolved, after waiting about
   a day and re-importing it works as expected.

 * Hi [@rhygrass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rhygrass/)
 * Thanks for reaching out.
 * What did you have in the previous step that made you think it was resolved? Maybe
   it’s something we can replicate.
 * So far it looks like an issue in either your import file (CSV) or your server
   that may be blocking the file, causing a partial import.
 * Thanks!

 * I’ve had trouble importing as well. For me, it turned out to be a memory problem.
   I had to increase the memory allocated to WP (and memory limit in PHP).
    Some
   troubleshooting steps to try:
 * – If you remove oinks_ data/lines from the file and it stops at about the same
   place, then its probably memory.
    – If you try and import only the oinks_ data/
   linese and it works, then it’s more proof that it’s probably a memory problem.–
   If you remove oinks_ data/lines from the file and it all imports, then i probably
   isn’t a memory problem -it’s probably a special character problem.
 * I can’t remember exactly what I had to change (something in wp-config, as well
   as a PHP setting with the host). In the end, I still run out of memory if the
   file is too big. So I cut it into chunks and import.
